the article is correct for Win2000 clients/servers - but for XP clients and Win 2003 servers you can change the DNS suffix search list via GPO.
Other option is to use a startup-script for your clients/servers setting the "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters\SearchList" RegKey via the script - the script could even query a text-file to set the suffix as appropriate for the respective machine. /Guido -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kern, Tom Sent: Donnerstag, 22.
